At donor retreats and in pitch documents seen by The New York Times, liberal strategists are pushing the party’s rich backers to reopen their wallets for a cavalcade of projects to help Democrats, as the cliché now goes, “find the next Joe Rogan.”

The first out of the gate has been Chorus, a well-publicized liberal nonprofit group co-founded by the Democratic influencer Brian Tyler Cohen.
But others have stayed under wraps until now. In November, Ms. McBride and other liberal operatives gathered in Washington for a series of meetings to survey the election wreckage. At the headquarters of American Bridge, one of the largest Democratic donor networks, they eventually hatched a plan for a for-profit media company called AND Media, which stands for “Achieve Narrative Dominance.”
The company, incorporated in March, says it is aiming to raise $45 million over the next four years. The group hopes to have a $70 million budget over that time frame based on predictions of $25 million in revenue. It says it has raised $7 million so far. Ms. McBride and Christian Tom, who led digital strategy for the Biden White House, have pitched the company to American Bridge donors as a broad cultural project.
Piker would honestly play ball if the Demonrats reached out, acted in good faith, and were not brainless.
But they are the biggest losers on the planet so there’s no way they’re digging themselves out
Absolutely. These people have no interest in negotiation or compromise, they're just gonna keep throwing their weight around (whether it's in domestic politics or the world stage) and by the time they realize they're not strong enough to do that (if it ever happens) it'll be too late.
They do love to compromise with the republicans though
Is it really a compromise if you want the same things
'collaborators' has a more appropriate connotation imo
